GOSH is campaigning for sustainable open-space management, led by the community for the community in partnership with the council, to enable food growing and encourage biodiversity in the city of Hull. We firmly believe climate change and sustainability must be the foremost consideration in Planning decisions and we therefore support the Charter.

RAFF (Residents Action on Fylde Fracking)November 13, 2020, 2:18 pm
Local communities are being denied their democratic right to partake in decisions that affect their immediate environment. RAFF (Residents Action On Fylde Fracking) has always encouraged its members to take action and get involved in local matters. The new planning laws do not make provision for this.
There also seems to be no mention of the fact that an increase of effective integration of climate change and ecological matters into projects at the earliest appropriate stage enables better outcomes, reduced risk and cost.

We represent diverse community of local supporters. Such local residents have a stake in the way their neighbourhoods look and function, and a right to to respond to concerns, not to mention substantial expertise in the local geography. Planning for future developments and transport infrastructure must continue to be scrutinised democratically through local councils and public consultation.
Aylestone Meadows Appreciation Society (AMAS)October 30, 2020, 7:53 pm
We believe it is important for planning decisions to be properly scrutinised in an open and transparent manner. If these decisions are left to the organisations which have a clear vested financial interest, they will be biased and will not take proper account of environmental, ecological and conservation factors.

These are fundamental rights that should be considered the basic minimum entitlement for communities across the UK.

The right to a decent environment in all its forms is basic and fundamental, as is the right to have a say over how that environment is used. We should see this as a common treasury for all – not a means of making profits for a few.

The planning system ought to be based on some basic universal and long lasting democratic rights for citizens to be heard, participate in and shape the planning system and its decisions. Those rights should transcend the political priorities of government, especially now, when politicians will claim the need to act swiftly in emergencies, yet are only reinforcing the essentially undemocratic forces which shape the places where we live, over which we have no say or control, and the consequences of which may last for a generation eg. we are going to start fracking again!

We need to support this Charter and to do the same in our own local authority.
